Troubleshooting The Control

The device number of the selected 1746 I/O Adapter device appears under

the “1746 I/O ADAPTER” heading. This number is selected on the 1746I

module using a dip switch (refer to page 10B-4 for details) and used in the

I/O assigner in PAL. Following the number is the message indicating

whether it is a 4, 7, 10, or 13 slot rack.

If the selected device is a 7, 10, or 13 slot rack, two or three screens may

be required to display all of the I/O data. When additional screens are

available, press and hold the [SHIFT] key and press the

[DOWN-ARROW] key to access additional screens with I/O data from

the same 1746 I/O Adapter. Cursoring down below the last row on each

screen will also access the next screen if it exists.

The 1746 I/O Adapter Diagnostic screen displays the inputs and outputs

that correspond to the terminal numbers on the 1746 I/O Adapter module.

They are listed in rows with each row representing a slot in the rack.

If an input or output is “ON”, its terminal number appears in inverse video.

If there is no I/O module in a slot, “EMPTY” follows the slot number.

This is a real time display, and its response is limited only by delays in

screen updates. Values for analog modules are displayed using four lines

of the display.

If more than one 1746 I/O Adapter is on the I/O Ring, a diagnostics screen

for each of these devices can be displayed. To display a diagnostics screen

for the next 1746 I/O adapter on the ring, while on the last page of the

current 1746 I/O adapter press and hold the [SHIFT] key and press the

[DOWN-ARROW] key.

Pressing the exit softkey (up arrow) at any time displays the Ring I/O

Menu screen.

If a 1771 I/O Adapter is selected on the Ring I/O screen and the {DISPLY}

softkey is pressed, the 1771 I/O Adapter Diagnostics screen appears. Since

the 1771 I/O Adapter is available in four different configurations, 4 Slot

Rack, 8 Slot Rack, 12 Slot Rack, and 16 Slot Rack, there are four possible

screens. Examples are shown in Figure 15A.6 and Figure 15A.7
